[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This printer was easy to set up and connect to my iPad and phone. Prints very clear, speed not to bad. The ink fill process was so easy. I also like the fact that it came with up to 2years of ink.

Perfect home printer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I needed a printer for work and personal use. I tried another brand but was not satisfied with the quality of the print or the cost for the ink cartridges. When the HP Smart Tank 5101 arrived, I was impressed from the moment that I opened the box. It was light weight and easy to set up. It took me twenty minutes from opening the box to setting up the printer to connect with my personal laptop and work laptop. Filling the ink tanks was mess-free and a breeze thanks to the color coded bottles and ink ports. I love that the tank level indicators are on the front of the printer and which allows me to see just how much ink I have left. The amount of ink used for printing pages seems very minimal and leaves me confident I will be able to print numerous work documents throughout the year without fear of running low on ink. I have even tested printing from my phone using the HP Smart App and was pleased with the app as well. I would recommend this printer to all.

I downloaded the app and it was so easy to login.I enjoy access to free printable contents. It hold 100 sheets in tĥe tray. The ink was so easy to add and the colors are brand vibrant. I can use the app and printer from my phone, laptop, desktop and so can the whole family can download and use the app to print. I can copy, scan and print so many pages. We use it everyday and us different size paper and a gloss paper too.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my second HP printer and I can say I truly do love this brand. I still have my old one that is working great but figured I’d give this one a try as an upgrade and I will say I am very happy I did. It was very easy to set up with the HP smart app. The printing was much faster than my old one and the quality was very clear and crisp. I would highly recommend this printer and brand to any family or friends who are in the market

Best Home Printer I’ve Used
on April 25, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The HP Smart Tank 5101 All-In-One is the best home printer I’ve ever owned. The step by step animation in the HP Smart App made set up a breeze. I was literally printing within minutes of taking the printer out of the box. The tank system for ink is easy to fill and refill. I love that I can actually see exactly how much ink I have left after projects. The ink bottles are recyclable which is great for the environment. The color prints are so vibrant! The print speed is fast. 12 pages per minute for black and white, and 5 pages per minute for color. It’s convenient that I can print, scan, or fax from anywhere on any device. Connectivity issues are solved by the self healing wi-fi. The only minor problem I have with this printer is the screen is very small and the buttons are hard to see. All said, this is a pretty perfect printer!

Beyond the Box: Navigating the HP Smart Tank 5101
on April 25, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently got my hands on the HP Smart Tank 5101 All-in-One Printer, and I'm here to share my thoughts about it:
Ink Tank System: One of the best features is the ink tank system, which fill the cartridges. While it's meant to be convenient and cost-effective when we print high quantity of paper.
Setup Experience: Setting up the printer wasn't as smooth sailing as I expected. I understood filling the tanks, because that how other printers with tank set, but It is a bit tricky to install the cartridges too, and it took me longer than anticipated to get everything up and running. It could definitely be more user-friendly in this aspect.
Print Quality: When it comes to print quality, the HP Smart Tank 5101 delivers really nice results, clear print and I try to print heavy weight cardstock, and it can take it easily.
Functionality: As an all-in-one printer, it does handle scanning and copying tasks adequately. However, I found the scanning process to be a bit sluggish at times, especially when dealing with multiple pages. It gets the job done eventually, but it could be more efficient.
Connection set up: we may need to download the HP SMART APP in the computer or phone to set up WIFI connection.
In conclusion, the HP Smart Tank 5101 All-in-One Printer is a decent option for those on a budget looking for a high quantity/quality printing solution. While it is not the easiest one to set up, it does offer some value for money. However, if you're looking for top-notch performance and seamless user experience, you might want to explore other options on the market.

Excellent HP Smart Tank printer!

from Puyallup
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Today I opened my new HP printer and set it up. I was surprised at how easy the process was considering it was a new kind of printer that I had never tried before. I was able to fill the tanks and set it up in around 15 minutes. I was impressed at how easy it was to follow the instructions and set it up for printing. I tried a couple of practice pages to see the quality and was quite impressed. The colors are vibrant and I love the fact that I’m not going to be running out of ink quickly. The process was so easy and I appreciate the thorough instructions. It was easy to connect to Wi-Fi as well. So far, I am definitely a fan of this new HP printer and would recommend it to others.

Easy to set up. Great printing results.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was my first time using a home printer with refillable ink tanks, and I'm really impressed with the technology. The printer comes with a large bottle of black ink and three smaller bottles of the colored inks. Filling the tanks was easy -- simply open the bottle, invert it over the ink tank, and hold steady until the tank is full. The black bottle contains enough ink for more than one fill, so store that bottle away for later. Absolutely no mess at all! I feel good about being able to refill the ink rather than buying entirely new cartridges, and I love that I can individually fill one color at a time.
The print quality is fantastic. The HP Smart Tank 5101 produces crisp, clear blacks and vibrant colors. I even got great results printing on heavier cardstock, and I'm looking forward to seeing how it handles things like labels as well.
The HP mobile app is really convenient, allowing me to print photos or documents directly from my phone over Wi-Fi. HP even provide a library of printables right in the app, like coloring sheets and planner pages. There's even printable craft projects.
I'll continue using my existing laser printer for high-volume black and white printing, but the HP Smart Tank 5101 is now my go-to printer for color documents. The effortless integration with the mobile app is simply an unbeatable feature. I particularly like the integrated Wi-Fi which means it's easy for everyone in the home to print directly from their own desktop, laptop, or phone, without needing to log in to one particular computer. I'm very impressed with how home color printing technology has progressed recently, and HP have produced an excellent printer for family use.
